English translation

5474. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "Neither Fara' nor Atira (is permissible)". Al-Fara' was the first offspring (they got of camels or sheep) which they (Mushrikūn) used to offer (as a sacrifice) to their idols. Atira was (a sheep which used to be slaughtered) during the month of Rajab. (1) (Chap. 3) Al-Fara' may mean one of three things: (a) The first offspring of camels or sheep which the people of the pre-Islāmic era used to offer to their idols. (b) A sacrifice which they used to offer when one's camels became of the number, one wished them to be. (c) A meal given on the occasion on the birth of camels. (2) (Chap. 4) Al-Atira was a sacrifice which Al-Mushrikūn used to offer to their idols during the month of Rajab.

5474 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ: حَدَّثَنَا عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ المُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لاَ فَرَعَ وَلاَ عَتِيرَةَ» قَالَ: " وَالفَرَعُ: أَوَّلُ نِتَاجٍ كَانَ يُنْتَجُ لَهُمْ، كَانُوا يَذْبَحُونَهُ لِطَوَاغِيَتِهِمْ، وَالعَتِيرَةُ فِي رَجَبٍ "
